Y/N'S POV:
"That looks great, Bruno!" I tell the awkward old man. He just finished outlining the 1st floor in sand. It's been a few days since Casita fell, and we're already re-building. They finished the foundation, and now we're onto building. Mrs. Ada told me that I'm now allowed to pick up and move things, so I'm helping with construction. Luckily I was able to borrow(steal) a pair of Camilo's pants and found one of my old shirts in the debris. I was able to rip off the sleeves and create a makeshift construction worker's outfit. I used the extra sleeves as a headband. I smile as I pick up another sand container and hand it to him. He thanks me and continues to outline the house.
"Well, don't you look... strong," Isabela smiles from behind me. I turn around and flex my arms.
"I know I do. I'm going for an authentic construction worker. Pretty good right?" I ask. She laughs and nods.
"You definitely look like a worker. Wait, are those Camilo's?" She points at my pants- er, his pants. I awkwardly laugh.
"What?! Nooo... No. I-no, never. I found these... in the trash," My high-pitched voice tells her.
"The trash?" Isabela humors me.
"Yep!" I laugh. She shakes her head.
"Ok, Trash Queen. Camilo doesn't seem to notice, but then again, I don't think Camilo ever keeps track of his stuff," Isabella laughs. I smile with a slight blush on my face. Some guys begin to bring in large pieces of wood. I'm guessing it's for the walls. Mirabel goes up to them and directs them to the sand outlines. I was right.
"Y/n! Can you pass them some hammers," Mirabel yells to me. I look around and grab the big basket to the left of me. The basket is slightly heavy, full of hammers and other tools. The guys come up to me and take a hammer each. I grab a hammer myself, then place the basket down.
"So what are we doing boys?" I smile and approach the guys.
CAMILO'S POV:
I walk onto Casita's construction site. My family took a break for lunch... I slept the whole time though. I lost a lot of sleep over the past few days. I'm anxious. I've been planning on asking out Y/n, but I can't seem to do it. Anytime I muster up the courage to say something, I'm interrupted by my family or a villager trying to talk to Y/n. I wish Y/n wasn't so popular sometimes. It makes it very hard for me. I still have the necklace I am going to give her. I bought it the same day Casita fell when we were at the market. I was going to ask her that day, but you know... The miracle and blah blah. I have to ask her to be my girlfriend.
"I got it!" I hear a voice yell. I look up and see Y/n sitting on someone's shoulders. She has a hammer in hand. A big smile paints her face. The guy holds onto her legs. I glare at him. Touching Y/n. I mean it's not in an inappropriate way, but still.
"I think that finishes it Miss Y/n," The man holding her says. She nods and he puts her down. That's when I notice what she's wearing. A pair of pants and a makeshift tanktop. There are smudges of dirt on her face. She carries a big grin on her face. She looks so carefree. So happy. I smile at her. She looks at me and skips over happily.
"Where have you been?" She asks with a playful look.
"Went on a lunch break with my mom. Ended taking a nap," I tell her.
"A nap?" She asks poking my arm.
"I need my beauty sleep. You think all this comes easy?" I joke. She smiles and rolls her eyes.
"Whatever," She says, "Whatcha got in there though?" She points at the bag in my hand. I almost forgot about the bag I was holding. I didn't get to eat, and I knew Y/n wouldn't stop for food, so I brought lunch for both of us.
